Sick, sick, sick...


On Saturday, I woke up feeling very sick. I couldn’t get out of bed, and just felt plain miserable. I’m still not sure what I had or what knocked me off my feet. On Friday afternoon, I wasn’t feeling very good, so I went to bed feeling under the weather. When I woke up, my sick feeling had multiplied. No fun. I’m really disappointed because I missed my first Korean class…bummer. But, by Sunday morning, I was feeling good as new!! I didn’t even take medicine or anything, so it was pretty incredible how quickly my sickness passed. Woohoo!

On Sunday, I planned to meet Mi-yeon for coffee before church. She ended up being a bit late on the subway, so we had to run to church, with no time for our coffee date. After the church service, Johnny met us in Gangnam and the three of us went to The Butcher’s Cut. I know I’ve mentioned it before, but it’s a really yummy hamburger and fries place. It’s seriously the best hamburger I’ve ever had, even from back home. (And because I don’t like to experiment much with food and prefer the plainer hamburgers, you can take Johnny and Mi-yeon’s word for it! The get BBQ Bacon burgers, a little more exciting than my plain cheeseburger, and they said their burgers are incredible, too!) Anyway, after lunch, we wandered over to a gelato place nearby for some dessert. I got a coffee and they got gelato. (Luckily for me, I got to taste-test both of theirs…)

After that, we decided to see a movie, so we went to the theater to check out movies and times. We decided on John Carter, the new Disney movie. (And I say “new” meaning, new to Korea. We’re a bit slow on this end when it comes to getting recent movies…) Anyway, Mi-yeon ordered tickets from her phone for a bit later, so we wandered in and out of some shops to kill some time. At dinnertime, we stumbled upon an Italian-type restaurant. It was delicious! It was the first time I’ve had white cream pasta in Korea-YUMMY! By the time we finished eating, we had just enough time to get to the theater, get CARAMEL popcorn and sodas, and head to our seats. It was a great end to my weekend, and it definitely made up for doing absolutely NOTHING on Saturday!

Yesterday at school dragged by, so I think it’s going to be one of those weeks…Some fly by, while others drag on and on…I have some exciting weekend plans to look forward to though, so that’s good!
